Opening a stream from Safari

[Deb Lewis]

Hi:
It seems that since upgrading to Mavericks, I can’t open a pls stream from 
safari. This was brought to my attention again by someone who can’t open my 
husband’s internet station from safari. Sure enough, I can’t either.
So how to associate a .pls or .m3u file with iTunes so that safari will call 
that rather than just hanging. If the files are opened in iTunes directly they 
play fine. I can always capture the link and just move it to iTunes and that’s 
probably what I’ve done without really thinking about it, but I know that 
people who listen to our stream won’t necessarily do that and they shouldn’t 
have to since this has worked fine in the past and still does in windows. 
so, is there something we can do to modify the .pls so it still works for mac 
users or is there some instruction we can provide to listeners? I’ve searched 
through various Mac forums and they’ve made a few suggestions but none have 
actually worked.
Again, this is totally about file associations that seem to be broken since 
upgrading. I know these worked at one point because I tested them, and I’ve 
also tried a number of other .pls files which are not working so it’s not jus 
the ones we created.

I’ve tried in both Mac and Windows to download the ID3 editor referenced in 
this email. I’ve had no success in any environment. What am I missing? Would 
love to use this I’m sure.

Yeah Geoff it worked exactly as you said when I went with JAWS. It
hadn't worked that way using either the Mac or NVDA. Was quite
straight forward this way. Interesting. I never reached the page with
the questions when I did it with the Mac.

DVD's on the Mac

[Deb Lewis]

Hi:
I bought an exercise dVD. I know DVD’s are problematic and I understand about 
the graphical menus etc.
In Windows, I can run this through DVD Audio extractor and make files of the 
audio content which is really all I need.
I’ve had no luck playing or extracting the audio on the Mac. I’ve done all of 
the following:
DVD Player: I used the Go menu to select a chapter. Sometimes I can get the 
first one to play but I have never advanced to additional ones although they’re 
listed. 
VLC: I can play the first chapter. can’t play any additional ones. Sometimes 
the DVD skips. Don’t know if that’s about copy protection or something 
objecting to VLC.
Handbrake: I can play and rip the first chapter but it’s always choppy. can’t 
move beyond that.
DVD Audio extractor: Can sometimes play and rip the first chapter. Nothing 
beyond that. It’s not choppy at least.
It would be a lot more convenient not to take these to a windows PC to either 
play or extract the audio. Is there anything I can do? I feel like i’m trying a 
lot of options. Unfortunately I don’t have other DVD’s to compare so I don’t 
know how much is accessibility and how much is copy protection, but I can 
extract the audio in windows so would think the Mac could do the same. 
I’d appreciate any help because I’m hoping to buy a couple more of these and 
just don’t know how to proceed.
Thanks so much.

Deb

Re: DVD's on the Mac

[Deb Lewis]

Yes, this might help in fact. It was only letting me see two chapters though 
and I know there are at least 5. 
The first three are not really content. so somehow I have to get to 4 and 5. 
trying again.
But I do understand better how it should work.

Re: DVD's on the Mac

[Deb Lewis]

OK. I was able to rip what might be all of the DVD but it’s not playable even 
after converting it to MP3. It’s all chopped up like the DVD was skipping. I 
know the disk is fine, it played in the DVD player or at least some of it did. 
And it did rip the audio in windows. But my result in Handbrake is not useable.
Did I do something wrong in the selections or is it blocked somehow?
Appreciate that I’m getting a little closer at least.
I think I took all of the defaults.

Re: DVD's on the Mac

[Deb Lewis]

Which encoding preset should I be using on Handbrake? I chose Universal. So far 
I’ve tried a couple and they all get the same effect of having the media skip 
when it’s played back. I’m assuming that’s an encoding problem. I should be 
able to play them in VLC right?
Thanks to anyone who can give me a hand with this.

Re: DVD's on the Mac

[Deb Lewis]

I don’t think the drive or the media are flawed. I know that when I create an 
MV4 using any app, they are flawed. This is the only DVD I have, but I do have 
experience trying to create Apple format files, they all skip even if this 
drive is not involved. They play in Windows, not not he mac.

Re: DVD's on the Mac

[Deb Lewis]

It's a top of the line Macbook Pro from 2013 so think it's officially
a 2012 model. It plays .mv4 files that come from elsewhere but has
never played them that I've ripped from day one. I have several
conversion programs, all same experience. Extracting to MP3 or any
other format is always flawless but not any of the Mac formats.

Re: DVD's on the Mac

[Deb Lewis]

Thanks for this most helpful message. This has indeed been a daunting task and 
I’m grateful for all the info.
Mac the Ripper does appear difficult to acquire at best after looking through 
info on the forums. But Mac DVD Ripper Pro appears to work quite well based on 
the demo and I’m likely to purchase it. I’ve also downloaded the DVD player 
listed below but haven’t tried that out yet. 
MDRP does let you look at individual titles on the DVD which has perhaps been 
the greatest challenge in this. There are a few unlabeled elements but I think 
most also exist in the menu. I’m going to verify that on friday with a 
co-worker.

Exchange distribution Lists in Mac Mail

[Deb Lewis]

Hi:
I have a feeling this is a no go sort of idea but I’m hoping I’m wrong.
I use exchange for work. I often do my work email on the Mac. So far so good 
for Exchange.
I have two distribution lists in exchange. when I enter one or the other of 
them in an address field on the Mac I get a list of everyone who has ever been 
a member of the group, not just the current members. It’s nuts since these 
groups have had changes over time. They’re all correct of course on the 
exchange side of the house and work in Windows office. But not on the Mac.
Is there anything I can do about this? Can I create a Mac distribution that 
doesn’t confuse Outlook and be done with it? can I do anything so that the Mac 
sees the correct list not including folks who were long ago deleted?
Both of my lists act the same so I don’t think it’s that I’ve done something 
wrong.

Re: Exchange distribution Lists in Mac Mail

[Deb Lewis]

No, you can’t even see the list on the Mac. only when you start a message. 
There is no distribution list on the Mac side. But when you apply the alias it 
does fill in the names—way too many names.

Booting Macbook Pro into safe Mode

[Deb Lewis]

Hi:
I haven’t been able to register for new accounts on commercial sites since 
upgrading Mavricks.
In my security settings it also says that some kind of  Google site checking 
service is unavailable. ON the Support forums they say you can try unchecking 
the warn for fraudulent sites box and see if that helps, but it comes back for 
them and for me. So if it does they say you need to boot into safe mode which 
will clear the cash. You don’t have to log in. 
the only info I need is to know when to let up the shift key after booting and 
how to know when the slow login procedure will have completed. I’m assuming VO 
doesn’t actually work for any of this.
Any clues will be helpful since it’s rendering safari to be a paperweight on 
the net.

Re: Hi all, Skype and vo problem and info from apple accessiblity

[Deb Lewis]

I’m not having any focus problems. I just downloaded the new update. I do 
notice that I have to interact with the contacts table now whereas before I was 
able to just arrow up and down in it without interacting. That’s too bad really 
but technically it’s the Apple way so not much to do about that probably. But 
otherwise I haven’t noticed any focus problems so far.

Re: IOS7.1: convert v. convela

Yes this is totally the case. I typed in the notes app, in a search screen, in

It’s not a show stopper but it is weird.

Re: opening iCloud documents

[Deb Lewis]

So I save all my docs in SkyDrive or I guess they call it OneDrive now. But it 
really is just that, one drive and they’re all together like i want.
It was too much trouble trying to find them by opening each app until I found 
whichever one they were created in.

Re: An interesting observation regarding points of interest availability between blind square and RNIB navigator

[Deb Lewis]

Yes. GlindSquare gives you points of interest based on the distance you’ve set 
in the search. The RNIB app is going to give you a radius distance that you 
can’t change. If you set blindSquare to the top of this threshold they’ll be 
very similar. I generally prefer the blind square method because you can 
actually find out what is near rather than what is around in the area.

Re: Reinstall mac problem

[Deb Lewis]

Press VO F2 twice to go to the window chooser and move to the window for the 
password. Now you’ll probably have to route the mouse there and click it to get 
into the field But then you’ll be able to type the password. This just happened 
to me. Focus is just not in the password field and this is the only way to get 
it there.

Re: last question of the day regarding streaming a station in itunes

[Deb Lewis]

If you don't know the direct link to the stream, I think the easiest way is to 
first browse to the link in iTunes. Then open that link which will cause the 
player to open if it's a supported stream. 
Itunes will actually put the link in a playlist called Internet songs. There is 
an Information command, I think it's Command-I but it's in the menu, and you 
can get the resulting link from there. 
I have a playlist in iTunes called Radio stations I Like. I paste this item in 
there, and edit the information so that the title is correct. Now it will play 
any time requested in this playlist. 
It took me awhile to figure this out but I got tired of playing things from my 
recents and having them disappear. This is a permanent solution for anything 
that plays in iTunes.

Adding and Removing Items from Menu extras

[Deb Lewis]

Hi:
I need to remove the PPP modem Menu extra and add the one for my User. I've 
read how to do this in the Mac but can't replicate it with VO. 
To add the User I'm to locate the folder and double click the item. I assume it 
means to open it. I do and it puts me in the extras but doesn't add the item.
To remove one it says to press command and drag it to the desktop. Nothing 
seems to happen when I press Command and try to drag the item. 
So I haven't been able to accomplish either task.
Any help would be appreciated.

IA Writer Exporting

[Deb Lewis]

Hi:
I'm trying to use IA writer on the Mac with Mountain Lion. everything is great 
and even terrific except that I can't export a document. It saves fine. when I 
export, I can choose any format, any location, and either type of markup, but 
no matter what I choose it just sits in the dialog and never exports the 
document. the only option that works is cancel and of course there's no 
resulting rtf, .docx file etc. What in the world am I doing wrong? It looks so 
straightforward otherwise.
Thanks for any help. I really need for this to work and it's a fabulous little 
word processor except for this.

Re: Audio File Converters

[Deb Lewis]

I downloaded the free version of switch and agree that it's great.
Aside from supporting a worthwhile copany, which is a good thing to
do, what do you get from the paid version? I couldn't see any
description of that, and I could be just missing that.

OK. I'm all in then. I love switch. Wondering about some of the others
that look useful too.

Re: syncing mail

[Deb Lewis]

If they're Imap accounts you don't need to sync them at all. The
simplest way to do this is to just create the accounts on the Mac as
new accounts and let them sync themselves from the IMap server.
There's so little to that, it's not worth trying to sync the settings.
I have lots of accounts and they all sync on their own between all my
devices. You might only sync the accounts if they're POP.

Re: pages on iPad and printing

[Deb Lewis]

The very best way, if you do not have an airplay printer, is to sync
your documents in ICloud. Then they'll be available on any devices you
sync including the Ipad and the mac.
That's how I have to do it in fact. But I'd do that even if I had a
better printer because this way I can work on them on any device.

Using an Uninstaller

[Deb Lewis]

I downloaded and installed Flip for Mac. It isn’t working at all as expected so 
I may as well be rid of it. It comes with an uninstaller disk image which I 
assume I must install in order to uninstall the program. I’ve never done this 
but I’m fine to do it except that I’m then wondering how I get rid of the 
uninstaller program. It seems odd to install something to uninstall something 
else. I just want this all ultimately gone since there was no value added.
Thanks for any clues on this. Don’t want to make a mess here if it can be 
avoided.

Re: Using an Uninstaller

[Deb Lewis]

That’s probably why it doesn’t work well, I’m trying to convert a format that 
is too new I imagine. Meanwhile, to run it without actually installing, do I 
just browse to it in the disk and open it? I think I’ve done this before and 
just didn’t think of it.

Re: ABBYY FineReader Pro now available for the Mac

[Deb Lewis]

The Pro version is fine with the Hovercam. 
I think the main pro of Docuscan is that the interface is the same in Windows 
and the Mac. But if you’re comfortable with how the Mac natively presents 
things, Fine Reader Pro is a great investment.
I love DocuScan for reading PdF though. I bought it when there weren’t too many 
good options for the Mac, and I love that you can just pop it open,hit a menu 
option and read. but it’s a lot of money for a little bit of convenience.

 Hello Gordon,
 
 If you bought the new FineReader from the Appstore, you shouldn't need an 
 activation code. If you bought it from the website, as I did, the code 
 comes in an email along with the serial number, customer number and all 
 kinds of other stuff.
 
 Cheers,
 
 Anne

Re: Using an Uninstaller

[Deb Lewis]

Well the option for package contents was greyed out so I just installed it 
anyway with excellent results. When the install completed, it uninstalled the 
original program and removed the uninstall. By the time I was back in the Apps 
list the entire mess was gone and almost forgotten. So apparently it was 
actually the only way since the package contents wasn’t available. But at least 
it works and no bad consequences.

Reading Chat HIstory in adium

[Deb Lewis]

Hello:
Would appreciate some help with adium and VO. I'm doing IRC and all is working 
well except that I occasionally need to read the chat history if i've missed 
something important. It's not in the window where the live chat is occurring 
and i can't find it anywhere. Have looked through the menus including all the 
events and I can find no evidence of it. If anyone could unravel this mystery 
I'd be so appreciative. Thanks!!

Navigating in Apple Mail

[Deb Lewis]

Hi All:
My friend and I are both using the Lion version of Mail. I love how mine is 
working but we can't get his to do the same. don't know what I'm doing or what 
he's not doing.
In my mail I can tab between the mailbox column and the list of messages. When 
I'm on a message I can jump to the content with VO-J and back to the message 
list. I don't return to the mailboxes unless I shift-tab back there. It's great.
My friend not he other hand is only able to move between the mailboxes, message 
and content using the Link command with VO-J. Tab and shift-tab do nothing for 
him. 
We think we have things set up pretty much the same but we obviously do not. He 
is certainly able to get back and forth but it's much more awkward because when 
he leaves message content he is bounced all the way to the mailbox column 
instead of to the message list. I'm sure it's something simple, but we've 
missed it. 
Thanks in advance for suggestions.

I'm not sure what the effect of adjusting them is and what impact that would 
have on how the keyboard performs then. No question that I might have adjusted 
them but not sure what the relationship is.

Instapaper on the mac

[Deb Lewis]

Hi!!
I've had Instapaper on the IPhone for awhile. I remember the tedious process of 
saving the bookmarklet. Now i'm trying to do it on the Mac. Just can't figure 
out how to proceed. 
It says to drag and drop the bookmarklet on to the bookmarks bar. 
I did VO comma to theoretically get hold of it but it said the link wasn't drag 
able. The text seemed to be but then when I opened the bookmarks I couldn't 
paste it. I'm not sure what to drag and where to drop it. Or, can I just cut 
and paste something? But what? There were a lot of instructions for putting it 
on the phone and I had no real difficulty following them. Get the sense this 
should be much easier than I'm making it. Any help will be most appreciated.
